A country boy can survive. That’s some ingenuity there and neighbors helping neighbors. A local trucking company hauled five tractor trailer loads of donated relief supplies that were collected at our county agricultural center. I have several friends who have collected and delivered supplies up there and they say that FEMA is only getting in the way and that the churches and volunteers are helping in any way they can. 
Just an old country boy saved by the grace of God.

Was talking to my neighbor the other day over coffee and he was telling me about a few years back after he retired from Fire Dept and as Captain - he signed up with FEMA on a disaster in Florida . Went to area and found a Hotel to stay in and 2 days later he was evicted as FEMA management needed all rooms there and workers needed to find anther place to stay . 
 So him and another fellow from NY (both lost their rooms) and bought a tent to share for the next 2 weeks while on site . 
 He QUIT - FEMA when he returned home and said NEVER AGAIN - did a couple church group calls for help after but Never Again for any government group helping .
Faith isn't a jump in the dark. It is a walk in the light. Faith is not guessing; it is knowing something.

BIL and I bought two old Utility External Frame trailers from a previous employer in 1992. Trailers were pretty sad as trailers but worked great as a temp bridge on his farm. County figured out they were there, DEMANDED they be removed as were not approved for or by the county Roads Codes. Since then the SAME SOBs that demanded that removal has added several of this type bridge using Truck Trailer Flatbeds and Rail Car flat decks. Been done a LONG time.
